Odds and ends for a 1933 Terraplane

bent metal

I am looking for some final pieces for a 1933 Terraplane.  But the parts I need might be the same for other years and Hudson too. 

I need:

1. The front door opening limiters.  Not sure if back doors are the same?

2. The metal trim that surrounds the door panel, kick panel, and kick panel at the b-pillar.  This gets covered in material and is attached with screws through the jamb area. 

Any parts or leads would be appreciated.

You might want to communicate with other '33 owners (especially those who work on their own cars).  They might know the answers, know what other years of Hudson / Terraplane parts will interchange, or even if you can purchase a modern-day part and modify it to fit.

My doors don't appear to have limiters, the hinges have a built-in stop.

The limiters on my 33T conv. appear to be just like the step down Hudsons.  Length and curve/angle

may be slightly different.  Don't remember if these were original .  I put this car together  about 45 years ago.

The door panel mounting system, I believe was used through 1940.   different spacing . I considered using pieces

from a 36 Terraplane door panel, but went with mounting clips similar to those used on the step downs.

"terraplane8",  I know what you are talking about with the hinges stopping themselves.  But the door should still have a limiting strap.  Without it, every time someone opens the door too far the mounting area around the hinge will be sprung/stretched a little bit.  Short term making a misalignment.  Long term making cracks in the sheet metal where the hinges mount, and bending the hinges and surrounding mounting surfaces.  ...Ask me how I know.  haha

"Ric West IN",  Thanks Ric.  I'm going to look around and compare what can be used.  Original pieces should fit this car.  So I was hoping to find some old stuff that just needs cleaned up, I'll check a wider range of years now.
